In its fifteenth year, this exhibition offers a unique opportunity to see some of the most promising talent in Scotland in one single, large-scale exhibition in the heart of Edinburgh. Supported by the RSA Blackadder Houston Bequest and showcasing 104 graduates selected from the 2022 and 2023 degree shows, the exhibition is a brilliant overview of the current outlook of emerging Scottish art and architecture.
Selection was made by Exhibition Co-Convenors Jennifer McRae RSA and Gareth Fisher PRSA, with assistance from their fellow Academicians and representatives from the five main colleges of art. The five Scottish schools of architecture are each represented by graduates selected by Architecture Co-Convenors Ben Addy RSA and Robin Webster RSA.
